UNSPSC 71121120: Sand control through coiled tubing services

Perform sand control through coiled tubing.

UNSPSC 71121120 Sand control through coiled tubing services (Commodity) does not match the work being solicited in recent state and local opportunities tracked under this code. The recent solicitations overwhelmingly involve water well drilling, rehabilitation, abandonment, maintenance, and associated infrastructure—irrigation system improvements, orphan oil and gas well plugging, municipal water supply wells, pump station repairs, and wastewater facilities—rather than coiled tubing services for sand control in producing wells. The City of DeBary, Florida is procuring irrigation system conversion and installation (IFB, Apr 10, 2015); the State of Michigan, through its Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy, is awarding prequalified contracts and issuing direct solicitations for orphan well plugging and site restoration across multiple counties (RFP and direct-solicitation vehicles, October 2026 through July 2026); the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board is requesting bids on orphan well plugging and remediation (IFB, December 18, 2026 and August 28, 2026); and numerous municipalities and counties—including the City of Albany, Georgia; Escambia County, Florida; Gwinnett County, Georgia; and others—are soliciting well rehabilitation, drilling, monitoring well installation, and pump station services. The geographic concentration of recent activity spans Michigan, Mississippi, Florida, Georgia, and Oregon, with scattered activity across Texas, Colorado, Illinois, and other states.

State and local issuing bodies span water utilities (cities and counties), environmental agencies (state departments), state parks systems, and special-purpose water districts. Michigan EGLE is a standout repeat buyer, posting multiple direct solicitations for prequalified contractors on orphan well projects throughout 2026. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope—sand control through coiled tubing is a specialty service for producing oil and gas wells, while every recent opportunity listed targets either water infrastructure or environmental remediation of abandoned wells, a fundamental mismatch that suggests the code assignment in the source data is erroneous or the code itself does not represent current state and local procurement activity in this domain.
